II. ECONOMICS. In the realm of the Economic, Industrial and Financial life of England. The Fabian Society played no less a part than in politics. With its slogan of "Progressive Policy" (Compare the subversive "Conference for Political Progressive Action in America".), it invaded Agriculture, preaching the Nationalization of land, in other words, the confiscation of landed property.
The first blow to Industry was struck in Lancashire, the stronghold of English industry, in 1890, with the help of the late Mrs. Annie Besant as chief spokesman and agitator. Later, the Cooperative movement was captured and Fabianized and subsequently delivered over to the Independent Labour Party and Labour Party. It is due to the Socialists having been so successful in conquering industry that, during the World War, sabotage assumed such appalling proportions in the munition factories in England.
As to the financial "ideals" of The Fabians, whose basic principle is the ruin of Capitalism, they became realities when taxation of the people took undue proportions in the shape of income tax, super-tax, death duties, and are to be followed by Capital Levy. The promised benefits to the working class to be derived from such schemes as the National Health Insurance and. Workmen's Compensation and Dole, Old Age and Widow's Pensions, have proved a myth. Yet they have gone a long way towards furthering the plans exposed in the Protocols, which aim at reducing to bondage the Goyim, rich and poor alike.
III. EDUCATION. In the matter of Education, the Fabian Illuminati have followed a theory which is none other than that suggested by one of the souls of Bavarian Illuminism, Nicolai, in the 18th century. Having secured posts on the School-boards of the country, it became very easy for Fabian socialists to instil their educational de-Christianized principles in the school curriculum. Their attack on religious teaching was subtle but deadly, as seen in the Education Act of 1902. They boasted openly of having in their ranks several Anglican bishops and divines, the list being headed by Bishop Headlam, one of the earliest Fabians. Eventually they won, having, as has always been their want, resorted to intensive propaganda, generously distributing their tracts and leaflets.
Under Fabian educational scheme come the formation of the Educational Groups and of "The Nursery", the latter designed as a kind of training school for very young prospective Socialists. Women's groups were also formed, the members of which participated in all movements tending to a fuller feminist emancipation. But, by far, one of the most important steps taken by the Fabians along educational lines has been their inauguration in existing Universities of "University Socialist Societies", which in 1912 were finally grouped by Clifford Allen into "the Universities Socialist Federation". Fertile seeds of Fabian Socialism are also shown at the Summer Schools organized annually by the Society, which E. R. Pease rightly terms a "propagandist society". The culminating triumph of the Fabians, in the realm of education, was the creation of the London School of Economics and Political Science at the London University, where, today, one of the chief lecturers is the Jew socialist, Harold J. Laski, Member of the Executive Committee of the Fabian Society and Chairman of its Publishing Committee.
As has been suggested already, and as can be seen from the succinct exposé here given, Fabianism left no field unexplored or unexploited. For fifty years, it has treated England to doses of both pure and diluted Marxism, mostly diluted, as the English, by the very nature of their steady and conservative characteristics, are not easily aroused to excesses like those perpetrated by the Paris "Communards" of 1871. But, on the other hand, they have been thoroughly permeated and their poisoning has been one of long process.
The results are, to the naked eye, the history of England since the War, politically and economically.
Lloyd George's Coalition Government had been kind to Socialism, but the real harvest-time came when the Labour Party won the election in 1924 and its members governed, or rather misgoverned, England. It needed nothing short of the Bolshevist alliance which MacDonald wished to force upon the country to provoke the remaining sound reaction of the English people and prompt them to overthrow the Labour Government. But this show of resistance was ephemeral.
How pitiful it is to know that the return of the Labour Party to power, in May, 1929, is entirely due to the incompetence of a conservative Government, in which the people trusted for the sane administration of the affairs of State. Yet, the Prime Minister, Leader of the Conservative Party, Mr. Baldwin, could not claim ignorance of the Judeo-Masonic plans contained in the Protocols of the Wise Men of Zion. He found it easier deliberately to disregard them. Be it as it may, England is once more in the hands of the Labour Party with the inevitable and ubiquitous Ramsay MacDonald and, according to the latest report issued by the Society "eight Fabians are members of the Cabinet and fourteen others hold offices in the Government without seats in the Cabinet".
From the Jew-led Fabian Society issue the chaotic words and deeds which are steadily wrecking not only general prosperity, but also combating with international forces drawn from all quarters of the globe any attempt at national readjustment such as the present movement in Germany.
The drawing-room meeting system described by E. R. Pease and which in America is known as "parlor-bolshevism", formed to gain well-to-do adherents, still functions, as witness the following article which appeared in the London Evening Standard of May, 28 1931:
A 10-YEAR-PLAN FOR SOCIALISTS

HOUSE PARTY RESULTS IN CALL
FOR CLEARER THINKING.

Mr. Cole Gets To Work

From our Political Corresponent.
The Government is to be presented with a brand new policy. Certain ministers are to take part in its preparation.
It is called a "long run" policy, and is planned "for ten years ahead".
Tomorrow evening a group of Socialists and Trade Unionists will begin fashioning the new plan at a meeting to be held at Transport House [The premises of "The Labour Party".]. The prime movers are Major C. R. Attlee (Postmaster-General), and Mr. G.D.H. Cole.
Sir Stafford Cripps (the Solicitor-General), Mr. Ernest Bevin, and Mr. Noel Baker, M.P. (Mr. Arthur Henderson's Parliamentary Private Secretary) are among those expected at the invitation of Major Attlee and Mr. Cole at tomorrow's meeting.
AFTER THE WEEK-END PARTIES
The new policy--or the plan for a new policy--had its origin in a series of house parties held last year at Easton Lodge (the Labour Chequers), [Easton Lodge is the seat of Frances, Dowager Countess of Warwick. The Socialism of all "Parlor-Bolsheviks" reminds one of the Jew Isaac McBride's utterance: "We are going to milk the bourgeoisie and they will help us to keep (up) the struggle against themselves."] when Socialist politicians, economists and trades unionists foregathered at weekends. Out of these meetings grew the new Fabian Research Bureau (of which Major Attlee is chairman and Mr. Cole secretary), which received the official blessing of the Labour movement two months ago and is now established in premises in Abingdon Street. [No. 23 Abandon Street is the seat of the S.S.I.P. ("Society for Socialist Inquiry and Propaganda"); the new "Fabian Research Bureau": and the "Socialist League".]
It is with this new policy that we are presently concerned. Outside of England, the Fabians are affiliated with strong socialist groups professing the same ideas in Denmark, South Africa, Canada and Australia, Japan, United States, Spain and Germany. Lectures by Fabians were also given in Paris at the Comite d' Etudes Nationales, founded and directed by the Jew Albert Kahn, and also at the Club du Faubourg, organized by the Jew Leo Poldes, as well as to the French Socialist Party, headed by the Jew Leon Blum.
On November 1, 1930, the Evening Standard, already quoted, contained the following lines:
GOVERNMENT BY FABIANS
Many Labor members are talking about the dominance in the Government of that very academic body, the Fabian Society. I find that many people believed that this organization, through which many intellectuals entered the Socialist movement had ceased to exist. But it goes on with membership, small but influential, some 5,000.
Yet practically every recent appointment, either to high or low office, in the Labor Administration has been made from the membership of the society, the latest examples of which are the new Air Minister, Lord Amulree, and the new Solicitor-General, Sir Stafford Cripps. I am told that at least 90 per cent of the members of the Government are in the rolls of the society, and that contrary to regulations, so are a good many highly placed Civil Servants. The Civil Servants would probably defend themselves by saying that the society is more intellectual than political.
This ascendancy is, of course, due to the all-powerful influence of Lord Passfield and his wife, Mrs. Sidney Webb, with whom the Fabian Society has been the passion of their lives.
* * *
If on the one hand, the British Government is run by avowed Fabians, the present United States Government is in exactly the same position. The "brain trust" of Franklin D. Roosevelt is composed of several Jews, among them Bernard M. Baruch, Herbert Swope, Mordecai Ezekiel, James Warburg, Frank W. Taussig. Others like Swanson, Secretary of the Navy, (see Whitney, Reds In America, pp. 49, 58, 59), Arthur Bullitt, Louis M. Howe, Raymond Moley, Tugwell, George N. Peek, if not Jews, were closely connected with Jews and such radical organizations as the Conference for Progressive Political Action, the Rand School for Communism, the Friends of Soviet Russia, the League for Industrial Democracy.
The League for Industrial Democracy is the American counterpart of British Fabianism. (Among the members of the Board of Directors of this League in 1926 figured Justice Wise, daughter of Rabbi Stephen Wise.) It runs parallel to the Ethical Culture Society, founded by the Jew Felix Adler, the Conference of Progressive Political Action, the Intercollegiate Socialist League, the Intercollegiate Liberal League, the American Civil Liberties Union, and countless other subversive groups. Under the heading "Other Fabian Organizations", mentioned in the Fabian Society's annual report for 1932, one reads:
"Active relations are maintained between the "Fabian Society and the League for Industrial Democracy of America... with the Public Ownership League of the U.S.A.".
Is not one forcibly reminded of the following sentence? "We appear on the scene as alleged saviours of the worker from this oppression, when we propose to him to enter the ranks of our fighting forces--Socialists, Anarchists, Communists--to whom we always give support in accordance with an alleged brotherly rule (of the solidarity of all humanity) of our social masonry. " (PROTOCOL NO. 3)
Not less than English Universities, have the American colleges been permeated with Fabian theories, and hardly any of them are without a branch of the National Student Forum (long headed by John Rothschild) or of the Intercollegiate Liberal League, founded at Harvard in 1921. Felix Frankfurter was one of its sponsors. Particular attention must be drawn to the Rand School of New York, founded in 1905 which, ten years ago, was raided by order of the United States Government on account of its Communist teaching. It is noteworthy that the Rand School received important financial support from the former Mrs. Willard Straight, nee Dorothy P. Whitney, now the wife of Leonard Elmhurst who, according to Mr. Israel Sieff's statement, is Chairman of the agricultural group of the P.E.P. One of the lecturers at the Rand School who has come into recent prominence is Raymond Moley, personal adviser to President Roosevelt, and his special delegate to the London Conference, 1933.
The penetration of Fabianism in the churches of America is fully evidenced by the subversive activities of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America. (See Sanctuary, Tainted Contacts, New York, 1931.)
As President Roosevelt's "brain trust" was recruited from such centers, it is clear that the composition of both the British and American Governments is similar. It is Jewish-radical or, to use plain language, Jewish-Bolshevist. Both governments are run by men who are merely puppets in the hands of Jews highly placed in the secret councils of the central Jewish Kahal, the present-day Zionist World organization, whose object is the ultimate destruction of all our religious, social and industrial institutions and the annihilation of our freedom. It is therefore interesting to note that plans, evolved in the numerous Bolshevist-Socialist centers created by Fabians, Liberals and Socialists, are being executed in both the British Empire and the United States.
It is curious to compare these wonderful socialist economic plans with those which were to have been the basis of the ideal Jewish State in Palestine, after the Balfour Declaration. They were formulated in 1919 by Bernard A. Rosenblatt, a prominent Zionist, in his book Social Zionism. From it we cull only the following lines, not devoid of a certain interest:
A. The Jew is a social force in history:
(1) The prophets of Israel as the preachers of political, social and economic democracy.
(2) The rabbis as the teachers in a democratic school of Jewish students.
(3) The Jewish figures in political history almost invariably the leaders in Liberalism, Labour and Socialism:
- (a) Examples: Karl Marx, Lasalle, Hess, Lasker, Bernstein, Joseph Fels, Brandeis, Gompers. (Louis D. Brandeis, an active Zionist, formerly close personal adviser to President Wilson during the War, and who, since then, has been sitting as Justice of the Federal Supreme Court at Washington.) (The late Samuel Gompers, President of The American Federation of Labour.)
- (b) Even unreasonable extremists like Trotzky show only the necessary evil involved in this Jewish tendency toward social justice. (If wholesale murder as practiced by Trotsky (Braunstein) is only "the necessary evil involved in this Jewish tendency toward social justice", one hesitates to ask what evil would be necessary in order that the Jews might confer on us some "greater" social blessing.)
The press notice of Rosenblatt's book in the American Jewish News is headed "Will the Jews again lead the world?" (The introduction to Rosenblatt's book is by Judge Julian W. Mack, U.S. Circuit judge, on "Juvenile Court", 1904-1917, member Board of Inquiry on Conscientious Objectors, 1917-1918; President "Zionist Organization of America", 1921.)
The "experiment" of this ideal socialism having signally failed in Palestine, it is to be tried now in both England and America. In England, the centralization of all plans for the "new policy" has, for quite some time, been worked under the name of "Political and Economic Planning" or P.E.P., and in America it has taken the name of N.R.A. (National Recovery Act). The plans of both are identical, only the method of execution is different. Whereas the English must be dealt with slowly, and as it were taken unawares, the American people, on account of the ignorance and the primitiveness of the masses, can be treated brutally, as is being done by Hugh Johnson and other henchmen of President Roosevelt.
"In 1927, Baruch asked Johnson to join him in his New York office, and ever since, the General has been Baruch's right-hand man... During most of these years (after the War) Johnson was in touch with a man who was in the thick of many contests of finance, battles of Wall Street, and intrigues of international banking. This was Bernard Mannes Baruch, suave and rich New York capitalist, friend and supporter of the President, who gave Johnson to Roosevelt, . . . . Another ace man on the Roosevelt staff here, George N. Peek, Administrator of the Farm Relief Act, was also a War Industries Board member, friend of Baruch, partner of Johnson in plow-making." Chicago Tribune, August 16, 1933.
In America, coercion is the order of the day; "freedom" is now a meaningless word; whereas the Englishman is asked to forego his freedom for the sake of patriotism, the American masses, aliens to the Anglo-Saxon race, are swayed only by cupidity and the promise of material prosperity. Both methods produce the same results: the concentration of all material resources in the hands of the Jews, the lowering of our standard of living, and complete physical and moral degradation.
"All people are chained down to heavy toil by poverty more firmly than ever they were chained by slavery and serfdom; from these, one way or another, they might free themselves, these could be settled with, but from want they will never get away." Protocol No. 3.
"The aristocracy which enjoyed by law the labour of the workers were well fed, healthy and strong. We are interested in just the opposite--in the diminution, the killing out of the goyim. Our power is in the chronic shortness of food and physical weakness of the worker because, by all that this implies, he is made the slave of our will and he will not find in his own authorities either strength or energy to set against our will." Supra.
"The need for daily bread forces the "goyim" to keep silence and be our humble servants." Protocol No. 13.
[END OF QUOTING]
I know that we have often run the speech of Louis T. McFadden's Radio Address of 1934. However, you need be reminded of a couple of Excerpts of same:
[QUOTING:]
EXCERPTS: LOUIS T. MCFADDEN
From Congressman Louis T. McFadden's Radio Address of Wednesday Evening, May 2, 1934, as such appear in the Congressional Record of May 3, 1934, dealing with the P.E.P. Plan analyzed in The Organization of British Slavery of Jew-Fabian Bolshevism.
"The country has recently been treated to the spectacle of the present administration's attempt to ridicule the idea that there is a definite new plan of government in process. Without attempting to comment in any manner whatever on the attempt to disarm the public, I desire now to refer briefly to a plan that was advocated as far back as 1918 when A.A. Berle had some very definite ideas regarding the establishing of a new State. Indeed, he wrote a little book on The Significance of a Jewish State dedicated to his friend, Louis D. Brandeis. In it he regarded the Jew as ‘the barometer of civilization at all times'. He recognized the inability of Christianity to avert war or ‘to do a single thing towards mitigating its worst effects', and seemed to think the Jews were the only power that could do anything about it....
"An attempt to establish a political economic plan is now in operation under the leadership of a group, formerly connected with the Fabian Society in England. This, until the present, secret political economic plan was drawn up by Israel Moses Seiff, an Israelite, the director of a chain store enterprise in England, called ‘Marks & Spencer', which house handles almost exclusively imports from Soviet Russia, which enables them to undersell its competitors... [H: Hmmmmnnn, there's that name "Spencer" again.]
"This political economic plan organization, now secretly operating in England, is designated ‘freedom and planning' , and is divided into many well-organized and well-financed departments, such as town and country planning, industry, international relations, transportation, banking, social service, civil division. It is already in operation in the British Government by means of the tariff advisory board. It has gathered all data statistics obtainable by governmental and private organizations in administrative, industrial, trade, social, educational, agricultural, and other circles.... Iron and steel and cotton industrial have been ordered by the tariff advisory board to prepare and submit plans for the reorganization of their industries, and have been warned that should they fail to do so a plan for complete reconstruction will be imposed upon them. This board has been granted default powers, and can, therefore, enforce its plan....
"That this political economic group practically control the British Government is indicated by the fact that Prime Minister MacDonald and his son and J.H. Thomas and other influential Britishers are officers of the group.
"An interesting sidelight is that some six months ago when the father of this plan, Israel Moses Seiff, was urged to show more activity by the members of his committee, his answer was ‘Let it go slowly for a while and wait until we see how our plan carries out in America.' That statement indicates that a plan similar to theirs is being tried in America."
[END OF QUOTING]
NOW, READERS, JUST WHAT IS IT EXACTLY, THAT YOU DON'T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND, SEE OR HEAR?
[QUOTING:]
THE ORGANIZATION OF BRITISH SLAVERY
OR JEW-FABIAN BOLSHEVISM
On March 29th, 1933, at a dinner given to the members of the P.E.P. (Political Economic Plan), the Chairman of this group, the Jew Israel Moses Sieff, made a speech on "Planning". The speech in itself already contained some leading lines as to the aims of the P.E.P. that can be summed up as the planned destruction of the existing order of our social, political and economic life and the erection of a structure based on centralization, standardization, expropriation and compulsion, leading to inevitable enslavement.
But in spite of having been somewhat rashly outspoken in his speech, Mr. Sieff did in reality show a certain amount of caution, for his verbal utterances were very mild compared to his written exposé on the same subject. Entitled Freedom and Planning it was privately circulated some months ago.
The perusal of this document leaves the reader no room for doubting the sinister outcome of the present world economic and financial crisis as viewed by united Jews and Fabians.
The Jewish plans for the attainment of world domination have been clearly stated in the documents known as The Protocols of the Wise Men or Elders of Zion published in 1905 and subsequently in 1920. As to the Fabian subversive ideas, they have been and are still being expressed in the Fabian Societies' periodicals, pamphlets and meetings. The P.E.P. seems to be the central office wherein the propaganda for the schemes of the advent of the Jewish power is being prepared and sent forth by a group of Fabians headed by the Jew chairman Israel Moses Sieff, director of the chain stores of Marks and Spencer.
It is no wonder that as Fabianism is the power ruling England today, the members of the P.E.P. should be in close and constant contact with Mr. Ramsey MacDonald and his son. In fact it is rumored that the whole of the actual British government plans in the realm of economics issues from the offices of the P.E.P.
The document above referred to Freedom and Planning starts by giving a dark picture of: "Collapsing Civilization". It fails however to point out that this fearful description is about the most sweeping indictment of what has been the Jewish capitalistic and democratic experiment of world government. For it would be a monstrous mistake for any intelligent citizen of whatever nation to close his or her eyes to the evident fact that for nigh sixty years, the Jews have surely and rapidly though almost invisibly climbed to the heights of government wherefrom the masses are ruled. Politically, financially and economically they have seized the reins of the governments of all nations and their invasion in the realms of social, educational and religious fields is not less important.
We are able to realize into what unfathomable abyss all organization of our Christian civilizations have been hurled to the great prejudice of all the populations of this Earth and that is why the picture painted by the Chairman of the P.E.P. is in itself the condemnation of the Jewish method of government.
It is of course necessary for the reader to bear in mind the fact that in describing the woeful state of the world the Jew spokesman fails to ascribe it to the rule of the invisible Jewish government which as Disraeli, a highly talkative if intelligent Jew, had so clearly shown had, already in his time, penetrated all courts and parliaments. (Refer to Coningsby, published in London in 1844.)

Let us take a break as we have been at this without a break for the last six hours. We will then offer excerpts from Freedom and Planning. That material can be separated from this writing or directly attached as space allows.

SUN., JAN. 25, 1998 2:17 P.M. YR. 11, DAY 162
SUN., JAN. 25, 1998
Let us now quote excerpts from Mr. Seiff's FREEDOM AND PLANNING.
[QUOTING:]
"COLLAPSING CIVILIZATION"
This generation is faced with the threat of a World collapse of modern civilization and the advent of a period comparable with the dark ages which followed on the collapse of the Roman Empire in the fifth century A.D.
We are apt to regard such statements as pleasantly sacrifying, pardonable exaggerations in the mouths of those who are trying to spur us to action against the very real ills of the time, but not meant quite seriously.
The threat is serious.
Chaos will overtake us if we cannot show intelligence enough to extricate ourselves.
For more than a year now nothing has enabled civilization to keep some sort of course and to ride out the storm except the immense momentum of ordinary economic processes and the inertia of habit and custom. It is the resisting power of those forces and not intelligence which has thus far staved off the collapse.
They can not bring us back prosperity, but they may suffice to carry the world through the immediate crisis. If so, we shall for a time be able to live on our capital, the capital stored up from past generations, the intellectual and moral capital of men and women trained for civilization and citizenship. By what chance will the next generation have, if half of them find no employment for their youthful energies, and all of them are living under the oppression of hopelessness and decay?
What forms collapse will assume no one can foresee. It may not come suddenly. More probably there will be a gradual decline with fleeting periods of revival.
"WORLD WIDE ECONOMIC DISTRESS"
Cracks are appearing everywhere. In China and in India economic distress is both aggravated and concealed by the social and political unrest of which it is the main root.
In South America revolution has become epidemic and all but one or two countries of the most solid are financially in default.
In Central and South Eastern Europe financial default is imminent, but that by itself is of little moment in comparison with the consequent social and political upheaval which will follow. It is open to question whether the populations of Germany and Central Europe can be fed and kept alive next winter and how long any organized government can control the situation of these countries.
In the U.S.A. loss of confidence is absolute. The strain of material suffering in a population, none too homogeneous, accustomed for generations to rapidly increasing prosperity may lead to a breakdown of existing institutions and forms of government. The outcome is unpredictable but the consequences throughout the globe may be catastrophic.
World disorganization, famine, pestilence, and the submergence of our civilization are visible on the horizon...
"BRITAIN'S NEED OF A PROSPEROUS WORLD"
Britain cannot however prosper in a distressed world. Entirely dependent on external trade for her food and raw material Britain cannot escape world catastrophe by isolating herself.
Moreover, that world wide loss of control of the machinery of civilization is all too visible in Britain in British institutions.
If Britain is to save herself and give the world that leadership which is urgently demanded, the first need is for complete reconstruction of our national life on lines fitted for the new needs of the twentieth century.
Here a fundamental difficulty must be faced. Economic nationalism is no solution. On the contrary it is among the main causes of the world's troubles. Recovery depends on building up afresh and extending even more widely than before the worldwide exchanges of goods and services which everywhere cross national and political boundaries.
The United Kingdom is far too small an area to form today an economic unit commensurate with the vast scale of modern commercial and industrial operations.
The aim must always be the widest possible international cooperation.
...We have allowed the members of our feeble minded to double themselves in the last twenty years.
"We have watched the purchasing power of our currency fluctuate wildly and play havoc with our economic life, and have been powerless to help ourselves... Notorious unsuitable candidates ‘get themselves elected' (this is our habitual way of speaking of what happens) to Parliament and the Local Councils.
Prime Ministers get nervously worn out in the mere effort to grapple with the everyday business which faces them...
"THE FAILURE OF OUR POLITICAL
AND ECONOMIC MACHINERY"
Our political and economic machinery is breaking down. The great fund of individual and corporate goodwill, greater probably than at any previous period in our history, goes to waste and all our wills are frustrated for want of large-scale plans on national re-organization.
Neither in politics nor in economics have we grasped that the first and urgent necessity is planning ahead.
Particular projects often of great political value are put forward in Parliament or elsewhere without any effort being made to relate them to each other or to a national plan, and they either break down or function imperfectly through needless friction engendered by absence of ordered planning.
Frequently where public opinion has become exasperated at its failure to get something done to remedy a defect which everyone recognizes as intolerable, our distracted legislators with unanimity unite to pass into law a compromise which is wanted by no one and merely aggravates the evil.
It is a common occurrence for a government to be pursuing two or more mutually inconsistent policies at one and the same time.
Then follows the trend of the subtle insinuating ideas meant to induce and reconcile the British people to the voluntary abandonment of their freedom if thereby their country can be benefited. Thus are they meant to become the very victims of their genuine patriotism. The example they gave of sacrifice and self-discipline has been but one more tool in the hands of their double-faced leaders. They already sacrificed their gold to comply with the plea that in so doing they would save their country. This is referred to in the document in the following lines:
"BRITAIN'S PLIGHT"
Great Britain and some parts of the British Empire have in some degree improved their own position since last autumn. Absolutely the improvement in Great Britain has been small, though relatively in other countries it is striking.
This achievement is of real value to the world, even though some part of it has been made at the expense of added difficulties for others.
It has been attained thanks to a remarkable demonstration of the self-discipline and well disposed spirit of public services and the sober imperturbability and reasonableness of the British citizen in face of a crisis.
It is in this evidence of British character that the best hope for the future rests.
It is this high feeling that must be exploited and the next step is to show the people that their country's needs require of them the sacrifice of their individual freedom.
"Can we save our freedom?" asks Mr. Sieff, and he advances the following line of arguments:
"CAN WE SAVE OUR FREEDOM"
Mr. Bernard Shaw's mordant words pose directly the poignant question. Is the national reconstruction possible without sacrifice of the essentials of personal and political freedom?
For all their differences Bolshevism and Fascism have two outstanding features in common. Both stress the primary need for conscious forward planning on a national scale. Both repudiate the claims of personal and individual freedom.
In this country we hold fast to the concept of freedom as one of absolute validity.
We know in our hearts that we are in imminent danger of losing both our freedom and our material well-being if we go on drifting.
But if indeed national re-organization has to be bought at the price of losing our freedom, many of us feel that it would be better for humanity to descend once again into the abyss of barbarism and struggle painfully back at some later epoch to a civilization capable of satisfying both its material and its spiritual aspirations.
Is the dilemma absolute? Can conscious forward planning of our economic life be reconciled with the essential and over-riding claim of freedom?
Is it true, that what we need is more government and a great encroachment on liberty?
Observe that it is in the sphere of our economic life, in the sphere of material things only, that conscious forward planning is demanded.
May it not be that an unprejudiced re-examination of what we call freedom may reveal unexpected possibilities?
* * * * *
In the realm of industry, the subversive opinion of the P.E.P. is that to the doctrine of "laissez-faire" or competitive initiative should be substituted standardization, monopolies and trusts, all under the rule of what Mr. Sieff calls the Planning Authority. Whoever is acquainted with the Protocols of the Elder of Zion, knows that this "planning authority" can have its directing center only in the councils of the supreme Jewish kahal where all "planning" and "conscious forward planning" have been done FOR CENTURIES.
[END OF QUOTING]
I would think that you nice people might want to look on to that ball game today for there is much taking place and it could get interesting if plans come off as hoped. No, it wouldn't be too good but what else is new? Adonai.
